From Nintendo itself, Nintendogs + Cats, Pilotwings Resort and the submarine game Steel Diver are pegged as "launch window" titles. The most popular games from the 3DS' E3 debut, like Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3-D and Kid Icarus: Uprising, will not be launched in that early time frame.

Nintendo also said that the following games are "coming soon" from its third-party publishers, intimating that most of these should make that early three-month window.
